Ugh real lovers are so back! There’s something so intensely romantic about a man who has all the riches and confidence he could want but still becomes putty for the girl he’s in love with. 

Both Marcus and Xander are my new book boyfriends and I love how strong and witty yet vulnerable and sweet Sloan was as a FMC. It had good pacing and humour to balance out the sad and steamy scenes. So well written too! Like, come on!!

I’ll find every book you love. Hell I’ll dig up Cervantes and make him write you a new one.

Bro I MELTED!!!! As a book lover? This was exactly what I needed from a MWBW (man written by a woman). 

The discussion of being mixed and not feeling fully POC or white was so poignantly included too. I’m not mixed but I deeply felt for Sloan and how out of place she was made to feel. It wasn’t too serious, but it wasn’t dismissive either. One of my fav reads of the year.
